How do I view my html codes on my macbook pro?

I know my coding is perfect, I used to work on the pc with it. Now moving to a Mac... I'm having such difficulty its starting to frustrate me. I've googled ways to solve it and they all say change the rich text and so on so forth. I've done that yet no change has occured for me. When I bought this, I asked if I could do my codes on it and the guy said yes, that I could do it straight from my textedit. It seems he lied or Im screwing up somewhere.
Please if anyone has the answer to this problem let me know what I'm doing wrong. I'd gladly appreciate it.

Gosh! They must've broken the mold after you.
i used notepad on the pc and just saved as .html
So use TextEdit and save as .html. When you invoke the Save dialogue, enter .html as the file name extension; if .txt is entered automatically, replace it with .html.
i am having a problem saving as a .html
What's the problem?
being able to preview my work
Close your .html file and open it again in TextEdit or Safari or another browser. TextEdit's behaviour is controlled by the Open and Save preference. If "Ignore rich text commands in HTML files" is checked, TextEdit will not interpret the HTML markup. If it is disabled, TextEdit will render the HTML markup. "Ignore rich text commands" also appears in the Open dialogue, so you can defeat per file this option.
i simply see the html typed in txt format the way i saved it not background color title or anything.
I suppose you mean the HTML markup is not rendered. See above. If you mean syntax highlighting, that's different, but, AFAIK, Notepad does not feature syntax highlighting.
For HTML work, you should probably check out
TextWrangler
<http://www.barebones.com/products/textwrangler/>
which is free, but a good deal more powerful than TextEdit, and does feature syntax highlighting.

How can I get the HTML codes in illustrator?

Hi, I am a graphic designer, and I am getting into the web world, I wanna know how can I get the HTML codes to upload a web design made using Illustrator,...¡?Does any one know?Please let me know...

everyone here is right, dreamweaver is better and you will need to understand html for this to work. HOWEVER, you can make a functional website using just illustrator and notepad (or text edit if you're on a mac).
Design your site in illy, slice it up with the slice tool. http://s23.postimg.org/mv311kpp7/test_illy.jpg
Save for web and select html and images, you'll get an html file and an images folder. Open the HTML file in your text editing program and it will look like this: http://s10.postimg.org/f32nf6r2h/html_stuff.jpg you'll have to know HTML codes but you can find tutorials online for most stuff, you'll just have to figure it out. In my fake site, i linked a button to google so i had to add <a href> tags to the code. http://s22.postimg.org/5avpadhch/a_href.jpg save the html file and open it in your web browser, hopefully not IE. You can't tell in the picture but the middle button actually does link to google. http://s21.postimg.org/qd77slqmf/firefox.jpg

Viewing downloaded html-code in a webview -AppleEventhandler failed(-10000)

I am trying to view downloaded html-code in a webview in AppleScript Studio. Showing the raw html text in the textwindow works ok, but I am getting an error message trying to output the code to the webview.
I really googled for a solution to this before posting, but haven´t found anything.
It´s the last line "call method "loadHTMLString:baseURL:"....." that is giving me the error.
What´s wrong?
on launched theObject
-- this downloads the source from www.google.com into the variable myhtml
-- and displays the source in a text view window:
set myhtml to do shell script "curl www.google.com"
set contents of text view "textwindow" of scroll view "textwindow" of window "textwindow" to myhtml
-- this should give a variable that points to the webview in the webview window
-- everything in this window is labeled "webwindow" in the applescript properties in IB:
set webwindow to call method "mainFrame" of object (view "webwindow" of window "webwindow")
call method "loadHTMLString:baseURL:" of webwindow with parameters {myhtml, null}
end launched
AppleScript Error

Hello
IF I'm not mistaken, you should provide "http://www.google.com/" for baseURL of your html source obtained from "http://www.google.com" unless this page defines its own base.
So you might try something like -
--SNIPPET
set myhtml to do shell script ("curl " & "http://www.google.com")
set nsstring to call method "stringWithString:" of class "NSString" with parameter "http://www.google.com/"
set urlstring to call method "stringByAddingPercentEscapesUsingEncoding:" of nsstring with parameter 4 -- UTF-8
set nsurl to call method "URLWithString:" of class "NSURL" with parameter urlstring
set webwindow to call method "mainFrame" of object (view "webwindow" of window "webwindow")
call method "loadHTMLString:baseURL:" of webwindow with parameters {myhtml, nsurl}
--END OF SNIPPET
cf.

Snippet is NOT tested, though I did go by the book as best I could.
Good luck,

How can I get the old view of iCal back on my MacBook Pro and iPhone?

How can I get the old view of iCal back on my MacBook Pro and iPhone? The Mavrick version is crisp and clean but a colored dot is not the same as a highlighted word. I rely on my iCal on my MacBook Pro and iPhone 5 to help me track which of the 8 sites I visit for my job during the week - the color coding is (was key) to organizing and tracking meetings. I hate the upgrade!

If purchased through the Mac App Store then it can be installed on up to five authorized CPUs. Otherwise, it's controlled by the license that came with the software.
To install on another computer copy the downloaded installer application to the other computer.

How can I install Snow Leopard on my 15" MacBook Pro without using its DVD drive?

I'm assuming your dvd drive is broken? if you have a thumb drive large enough (8GB or better), you can use another computer to make a bootable image from the install dvd to the thumb drive. then you can install from the the thumb drive.

How do i get the GBP sign on my macbook pro

HI how do i get the GBP sign on my macbook pro ?
Thanks

You hold down the Option key and type a 3 on a US standard keyboard.
Or you open System Preferences / Keyboard, tick the Show Keyboard & Character viewers option. That will pop up a menulet in the menu bar from which you can choose the Keyboard Viewer item. In turn, that pops up a mini-floater on the screen, mimicking your keyboard and showing what characters are produced as you press any of the keys.

How do I get visual basic 2010 on my macbook pro?

How do I get visual basic 2010 on my macbook pro?

The Mac version is called Real Studio
That is not the same as Visual Basic. It is similar, but not the same. Unless something has changed in the last few years, it will not execute or create Visual Basic code. That may or may not be important to the OP, depending on whether he actually needs VB or just a product that is similar, but is an important point he needs to be aware of.

How do I burn imovie to dvd on my macbook pro that can be read by dvd player to watch on my TV.

Purchase iLife 11 (includes iDVD) on disk.
IDVD is a wonderful piece of software and well worth the low cost of $40.

Yes, there are programs that will put a movie on a DVD. I have tried most of the other substitutes including Toast, Burn, DVD Creator, Wondershare, and others. None of them come anywhere near the ease-of-use and power of iDVD. IDVD is specifically designed to work with iMovie.
